Hinjewadi Traffic Issues

This is a discussion on Hinjewadi Traffic Issues within Street Experiences, part of the Buckle Up category; Did anyone else get stuck in the major jam on the Bypass today?
I got stuck in the jam that ...

I got stuck in the jam that started in front of VITS and led all the way till the Wakad flyover. Stuck as in royally stuck. The entire distance was covered at crawling speed in the 1st gear itself.

Apparently, two trucks had a breakdown on the bypass, resulting in the long queue's.

Left home at 8:30 to avoid traffic and still landed up in office later than the usual time .

Yup i was also the unlucky one. I started at 8.25 from my house and reached the office desk at 9.50. I could see only 1 HP Truck with Gas Cylinders stalled in the right lane. Did not notice anything else. It was really amazing how one truck stalled lead to such a major traffic jam in the morning rush hour traffic.

Well, the Thursday theory seems so true.. There wasnt much of a Jam, or even a congestion on the way to office today (10.30AM).
Hopefully, it will remain the same on the way back.

I am not facing any congestion for last three days, in fact last two days were much better than today. I start from my home at around 10:10 and reach wakad junction by around 10:25-30. And I would reach Phase 3 by 10:40-45! Awesome, no?

Absolutely true , somehow the route has become faster for the last couple of days with just a few bottlenecks being the Wakad bridge descend , hinjewadi chowk and Mezza 9 circle

NH4 this morning. There was this truck trailer that had mounted the median just before the bridge near the flyover. I wonder where the driver cab went!

Towards phase 2, near ICICI/Sobha. There seemed to an accident or something. Did not get to see what but the traffic had really piled up with vehicles from both directions going into incoming lanes. I was lucky to see the jam much before and moved to extreme left lane. Any idea what really happened?

Yes it was bad yesterday. Left office at 6.45 PM. Took the left at Mezza 9 and then it took me 45 min to touch the highway All because of people going from the wrong side and then blocking the way up front.

I must've been in one of those cabs going the wrong way told the driver, but he refused to listen. Spent a good 30mins odd in the jam. When will we ever develop a good infrastructure & driving etiquettes to match the cars we drive today!?!?

I hate all the people wanting to take the U-Turn after the flyover to get onto NH4 towards Kothrud, especially during the peak traffic hours. The U-turns disrupt traffic on both the sides. They can easily take the free left and get onto NH4 by travelling 700m more. The end of the flyover becomes a single lane and that lane often stretches to the gap in the divider where people take the U-turn. This in turn builds up the traffic on the flyover.
